TARGET 1.B:Achieve full and productive employment and decent work for all, including women and young people

TARGET 1.C:Halve, between 1990 and 2015, the proportion of people who suffer from hungerTARGET 2.A: Ensure that, by 2015, children everywhere, boys and girls alike, will be able to complete a full course of primary schooling.

TARGET 3.A: Eliminate gender disparity in primary and secondary education, preferably by 2005, and in all levels of education no later than 2015Very successful in increasing girls participation in education at primary and secondary levels.TARGET 4.A: Reduce by two thirds, between 1990 and 2015, the under-five mortality rateThe number of deaths in children under five worldwide have declined but it was still 6.9 million in 2011.Mortality is more likely to strike children in rural areas.Children born into poverty are almost twice as likely to die before the age of five as those from wealthier families.Children of educated mothers—even mothers with only primary schooling—are more likely to survive than children of mothers with no education.TARGET 5.A: Reduce by three quarters the maternal mortality ratio.TARGET 5.B:Achieve universal access to reproductive healthAn estimated 287,000 maternal deaths occurred in 2010 worldwide, a decline of 47 per cent from 1990, but levels are far removed from the 2015 target.

The maternal mortality ratio in developing regions is still 15 times higher than in the developed regions.

The rural-urban gap in skilled care during childbirth has narrowed.The large increase in contraceptive use in the 1990s was not matched in the 2000s.The unmet need for family planning remains persistently high in regions with low levels of contraceptive use.

More pregnant women are receiving care with the recommended frequency, but gaps still exist in regions most in need.Fewer teens are having children in most developing regions, but progress has slowed.health care and family planning remains low.Official Development Assistance for reproductive TARGET 6.C: Have halted by 2015 and begun to reverse the incidence of malaria and other major diseasesTARGET 6.A: Have halted by 2015 and begun to reverse the spread of HIV/AIDSTARGET 6.B: Achieve, by 2010, universal access to treatment for HIV/AIDS for all those who need it

Comprehensive knowledge of HIV transmission remains low among young people, along with condom use.More people than ever are living with HIV due to fewer AIDS-related deaths and the continued large number of new infections.Access to treatment for people living with HIV increased in all regions.

Countries with improved access to malaria control interventions saw child mortality rates fall by about 20 per cent.The global estimated incidence of malaria has decreased by 17 per cent since 2000, and malaria-specific mortality rates by 25 per cent.The anti-tuberculosis drive is closing in on a 50 per cent cut in the 1990 death rate and more TB patients are being successfully treated.TARGET 7.A: Integrate the principles of sustainable development into country policies and programmes and reverse the loss of environmental resourcesTARGET 7.B:Reduce biodiversity loss, achieving, by 2010, a significant reduction in the rate of lossTARGET 7.C:Halve, by 2015, the proportion of the population without sustainable access to safe drinking water and basic sanitationTARGET 7.D: Achieve, by 2020, a significant improvement in the lives of at least 100 million slum dwellersForest area increase in Asia is helping to slow, but not reverse, global losses worldwide.

Of all developing regions, South America and Africa saw the largest net losses of forest areas between 2000 and 2010.Growth in protected areas varies across countries and territories and not all protected areas cover key biodiversity sites.

By 2010, protected areas covered 12.7 per cent of the world’s land area but only 1.6 per cent of total ocean area.11% of the global population (783 million people) remains without access to an improved source of drinking water and, at the current pace, 605 million people will still lack coverage in 2015.

Access to improved sanitation facilities increased from 36 per cent in 1990 to 56 per cent in 2010 in the developing regions as a whole.

Despite progress, 2.5 billion in developing countries still lack access to improved sanitation facilities.The target was met well in advance of the 2020 deadline.

The share of urban slum residents in the developing world declined from 39 per cent in 2000 to 33 per cent in 2012.

Nevertheless, 863 million people are estimated to be living in slums.TARGET 8.B: Address the special needs of least developed countriesTARGET 8.C: Address the special needs of landlocked developing countries and small island developing StatesTARGET 8.D:Deal comprehensively with the debt problems of developing countriesTARGET 8.E:In cooperation with pharmaceutical companies, provide access to affordable essential drugs in developing countriesTARGET 8.F: In cooperation with the private sector, make available benefits of new technologies, especially information and communicationsTARGET 8.A:Develop further an open, rule-based, predictable, non-discriminatory trading and financial systemThere is a $167 billion gap between actual aid disbursement and the amounts committed by donor countries.

A delayed impact from the economic crisis on donor country budgets between 2013 and 2015 threatens to further widen the delivery gap.MAIN CAUSES FOR GLOBAL INEQUALITY:From "Vulnerabilidad y desastres. Causas estructurales y procesos de la crisis de África" by Karlos Pérez de Armiño
